The action is performed by holding {{button|n64|Z}} and pressing {{button|n64|B}}, which causes Mario to swing his legs around in a circular motion similar to a {{wp|Floorwork|downrock}} breakdance/b-boying. This kick can damage any surrounding enemies or breakable objects.
A '''Sweep Kick''',<ref>''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' instruction booklet, page 17</ref><ref name=NP>''[[Super Mario 64]] [[Nintendo Power]]'' Player's Guide, page 7</ref> also called a '''Trip''',<ref>''Super Mario 64'' instruction manual, page 15</ref><ref name=NP /><ref>''[[Super Mario 3D All-Stars]]'' actions menu</ref> is one of [[Mario]]'s various moves that debuts in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. The action is performed by holding {{button|n64|Z}} and pressing {{button|n64|B}}, which causes Mario to swing his legs around in a circular motion. This kick can damage any surrounding enemies or breakable objects.


The move returns in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', where Mario, [[Yoshi]], [[Luigi]], and [[Wario]] are able to perform the Sweep Kick. The move is activated by pressing the attack button while [[crouch]]ing, which are different buttons depending on the control setup. While Yoshi is able to perform the move, due to his low attack power, some enemies, such as [[Boo]]s, are impervious to the attack.

A similar, albeit unnamed, move can be performed by Mario and Luigi in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. While crouching with {{button|wii|Z}}, the player has to shake the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] or [[Wii#Nunchuk|Nunchuk]]. Upon activating the move, the character [[spin]]s while crouched. Likewise, the [[Roll|Tail Spin]] from ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'' also acts similarly, though it is quicker and continuous and can be used while moving.

The Sweep Kick is also used by Mario, Luigi, and [[Dr. Mario]] as their down smash attacks in all of the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' installments they appear in.

Ultimate]]''.
